sorry for listing so much junk, i don't have a scale to weigh the truck so i thought all this junk listed would give you some idea of the trucks weight. thanks in advance, carl.

A 1950 8t on 6s lipo should be pretty quick. Should push in the mid 40 or faster if you want depending on the gearing you select.

i'm going to use it for racing most of the time. i've got 13t and 15t mod1 pinions. whacha think coolhand?

I think you might need higher than that, like a 16 or 18T pinions

Yea, a 16 or 18 would be in order.

6s 1950 with the stock revo diffs I would go with the 15 to start out on. I am not sure on the tire you will be running though.

i'll be running 40 crimes/wabash and dace adapters most of the time, here and ther i'll run road rage/wabash so i don't ruin the crimes on asphalt. i'll start with the 15t. what temp should i look for to be in the safe zone? how else will i be able to tell if its geared correctly?

The cooler the better. I ran a few numbers and came up with about 40 mph with no tire ballooning. I think you will get a little more out of it than that.
It was a little over 40mph to.

which pinion was that with? also, should i wrap each tire once or twice with duct tape?

Yes, the tires should be taped, its very affective, no ballooning if done right!

I wrapped mine twice with duct tape. It worked like a charm. I went with the 15 tooth pinion with 51 tooth spur. 2nd gear as well. that was with the crimes to.

nice. as soon as i get this truck finished i'm going to one of my friends track. i'll race with savages and tmaxxs 2.5s and 3.3s. think i'll have a chance? one savage has an axial engine in it and the owner claims 50 mph!

what is the equivallent of a lehner 1950/8 in the wanderer line?

Youll be the winner! Youll be AMAZED by the accel of bl, 0-40 in 2 seconds:)

I think a 8 or 9 xl is close to it?

when you race it get the gun and see what top speed you get out of it!

are there any more tricks i can do to ensure nitro is my bit**?

Well, i can assure you, i see you being the bit** of all those damned nitros already!

how much is a radar gun?

i'll be they're b*tch????

I KNOW you will be !

that means i'll lose?

No, you WILL OWN ALL those 3.3's! Sorry for the confusion:p

forgive syvester. hes from canada, eh? lmao. yea, they will be your bit** not the other way around.

cool, it'll be fun. i took my g2r to my lhs to test fit bodies and you should have seen the attention my truck got. everyone buys revos there, but they've never seen a "monster equipped" g2r!!!!!! thanks for all the help guys. i always give my friends on this site all the credit!!!!

i was wondering? its cool.

It is about like a 9xl but the 9xl don't have the same power. The 1950 8t runs a little cooler and more powerful. I used to run the 9xl before hand. I hope you can keep the front tires on the ground. It should dog the nitro boys. If he can run the 50 mph he claims the 1950 will be thre long before he has a chance to get it shift good. I have a savage and the 1950 is alot faster on the get up.

yup, i can't wait to let it rip.

You mean your truck, right? :005: LOL

i think i was setup for that one. lol!

Lol !!!
